Bitcoin, Ethereum and XRP enter September 25 with constructive daily structures but hesitation near important technical barriers. Bitcoin is holding above $82,076, though negative Chaikin Money Flow signals cautious buying momentum. Ethereum is strengthening above $2,606, with positive CMF supporting its recovery structure. XRP is trading around $1.53 and faces $1.55 resistance, while negative CMF raises risks of further consolidation.
XRP’s recent action has been volatile: after falling into the $1.25–$1.30 area, buyers stepped in and pushed the price to $1.65 on September 23, before a pullback to around $1.45 and a recovery above $1.50. Key levels now are $1.55 resistance, with $1.60 and $1.65 above, and support at $1.50, $1.45, then $1.36–$1.37. The RSI near 53 leaves room for upside, but MACD has cooled with a negative histogram.
On-chain activity on the XRP Ledger also stands out: 11,432 newly activated accounts in September versus a 30-day average of about 2,700, roughly 323% above average, though the data may reflect exchange infrastructure or wallet migrations rather than unique users. Separately, the SEC’s September 17 temporary conditional exemptions for certain Tokenized Securities Venues create a framework for on-chain securities markets, without granting XRP new regulatory status. Ripple’s XRPL AI Starter Kit supports x402 payments using XRP and RLUSD, but broader x402 activity remains dominated by stablecoins such as USDC, so the narrative does not automatically translate into direct XRP demand.
